Artist picture
Tom Paxton meets Jefferson Airplane. Extremely prolific singer songwriter with a wide range of styles from bizarre novelty tunes and surrealistic poetic songs t
With more than 300 songs and counting and for more than 30 years, I have written in a variety of acoustic styles from novelty tunes to love songs to historical ballads to poetic surrealistic songs to retro-acoustic pop. From bizarre to traditional from funny to poignant, whatever style the song is in, the melodies are usually memorable and the lyrics unpredictable. This site will eventually contain rough often first take demos of my entire song catalogue. Many of the earliest songs when I first started writing will of course be shaky. So expect the songs to get better as time goes on. Feel free to come back and browse often as I will constantly be adding songs, one by one in chronological order, starting in 1974. If you are looking for some unusual songs to cover from a little known but unique artist, you have come to the right place. Just e-mail me. If you find a song here that intrigues you, but you don't like a line or two, or you think it needs a bridge, drop me an e-mail and maybe you can earn writer's credit if it gets that song to be recorded or performed.... otherwise just enjoy. You can become a Rob Lincoln fan at no cost to you. I promise that if you keep coming back there will be some real surprises along the way. While mostly acoustic, some original material will veer into folk rock and even 60's pop, but the garage rock and loudest material will also be found in full band arrangement at soundclick.com/abrasiveflowers Eventually some of these 300+ tunes may be rerecorded and make it on to CD, including a novelty CD that would be suitable for Dr. Demento or an historical ballad CD or a political song CD--but until then, this is the only site you can hear most of these songs. (A few of my songs CAN be found on songramp.com/RobLincoln and myspace.com/lessickandlincoln)

Story behind the song
This song was a throwaway never played to anyone. Mp3 listeners liked it and gave it a 4 out of 5...comments included: "I love this song. How come you kept it hidden?" "Like the chorus and the acoustic guitar noodling lead" "your singing on this one is appealing"
Lyrics
Gonna take a little Monday Mix it with a little funday Gonna find a little happy day this time Gonna take a little Tuesday Mix it with a zippy blues day Gonna find a little snooze day this time Gonna take a little Wednesday Gonna be with all my friends day Gonna try make amends day this time Chorus Every days just another day Every hour seems to slip away Tomorrow seems so far from yesterday this time Gonna take a little Thursday See how much it really hurts day Gonna iron all my shirts day this time Gonna take off every Friday I hope I don’t have to just lie day Gotta fish I gotta Fry day this time Gotta sleep late on a Saturday Don’t let anything matter day Lie around getting fatter day this time Gonna sing upon a Sunday High and low the scales they run day Gonna get ready for another Monday this time Gonna take a little Monday Mix it with a little funday Gonna find a little happy day this time Gonna find a little happy day this time
